We Don’t Have To Be Sweet To Be Saints :: CNA


We Don’t Have To Be Sweet To Be Saints :: CNA

The saints aren’t always “nice,” and they aren’t without certain eccentricities, either. I still don’t think much of Mother Teresa’s poetry. Thomas Aquinas was fat. Teresa of Avila was wordy. St. Paul once gave a homily so long a boy listening from a window ledge grew groggy and fell to his death. (Paul resurrected him, but still.) http://www.catholicnewsagency.com/column.php?n=984
